Home. 11,156 Miles and 7 Weeks Later

Ugh. Holy shit, it's over. For now. That was a haul unlike any other I've attempted. Trying to find words to encapsulate a trip of such size is difficult, hell, trying to grasp all that was seen and done is a lost cause. Gotta love photos and blogging for keeping track of the memories and …

Back at it

After a solid 3 weeks in Canada, it's time to start heading east again. Here in a bit I'm heading out to Drumheller, AB to check out the Royal Tyrell Museum which is loaded with dinosaur artifacts. The Alberta Badlands are one of those rare places loaded with fossils of all kinds that I can't …

A Short Breather

After 8 straight days of popping awake, grabbing a quick cup of coffee while packing, crawling into horrifically stinky riding gear and hammering down the road for 4-500 miles, it's delightful to be sitting in a Starbucks in shorts sipping coffee and typing.

A New Adventure on the Horizon

Howdy! Well, that last trip really got the travel bug fired up and thankfully I don't have much in the way of obligations holding me back. Thus, on or around the 24th of June I'll be heading out on a 10k+ 6-8 week dual sport moto adventure across Canada and the US. This isn't going …

So, That Big Motorcycle Trip…..

Hooooo, boy! It has been a while since my last blatherfest. Lots of nifty little adventures, including overnight camping trips in my lovely Oregon desert to working 'vacations' in Portland to assist friends, have been occurring right under your nose. Yes, yes, I promised big bold write-ups of my little moto romp through the desert …
